The Folly - Wedding Open Day

We are incredibly fortunate to have several wonderful wedding venues on our doorstep, and The Folly at the Farmhouse is certainly one of our favourites! They cater for all manner of events, from weddings, to christenings to Christmas parties. Of course we mainly supply their weddings, which is why the kindly asked us to style their Wedding Open Day in July this year.

From their own website:

Situated in what was once an 18th century farmhouse, The Farmhouse at Mackworth is now the home of The Folly; a spacious, stylish and intimate venue with a blend of old & new that is able to accommodate a range of party sizes and budgets hosting up to 130 guests for your wedding.

Simply styled The Folly is licensed to host weddings, civil ceremonies and receptions. We’ve created the ideal ambience for a unique, informal and memorable occasion giving you the perfect canvas to add touches of elegance and individuality to your wedding day.

We’ve been lucky enough to supply a lot of weddings here, so knew the space perfectly. We decided to separate the space into two colour schemes; White and Bright for the ceremony, and Green & Gold for the wedding breakfast.

The ceremony area featured our Grace Arch behind the ceremony table with our Grace Floral Arrangements on top and in front of it, Grace Floral Centrepiece Domes on Gold Twirling Mesh Stands all sat on top of our white wooden plinths. The venues own chiavari chairs were dressed with our white chiffon drapes and a piece of real ruscus tied with twine. Framing the stunning cake by Joanne at Joanne Evans Cake Design was our new Gold & Floral Moongate.

The wedding breakfast area was then transformed using an absolute favourite of ours – Hunter Green. Really is an under-appreciated colour (in our opinion!) and worked incredibly with gold charger plates and candle sticks (supplied by the lovely Under the Covers) The stationary provided by KM Stationary Design literally stole the show! Absolutely loved the place names with tassels!

Our hunter green cheesecloth chair drapes were fashioned ‘Grecian’ style and tied with gold ribbon, and the tables had their own pop of green with matching table runner. 

We used our Sophia Floral Dome Centrepieces sat on Rose Gold Trumpet Stands on the guest tables, with our magnificent Sophia Table Floral Arrangement along the top table. The top table was then finished off with our incredibly popular Evergreen Moongate Arch.

Not forgetting the final touches, our Floral Hexagon Arch was used backdrop for the fantastic welcome sign provided by KM Stationary Design, and as usual we couldn’t style a shoot without providing a flower wall – the Richmond Flower Wall & Just Married neon sign took pride place in the main room. The room was then finished off with a set of Ficus Trees and our new Ornate Easel for more of KM’s beautiful signage.
